The link to the UCM Manual which includes UCM/ETH03 is http://www.cytech.biz/ucm_manual.html
The UCM/ETH03 allows Comfigurator and other 3rd party software, as well as the Comfort iOS and Android apps to work with Comfort
The Comfort Server Manager sets up the IP address of the UCM/ETH03. This is included in Comfigurator 3.7.8 and above.
In Comfigurator, Select Options > Settings > UCM Interface = Network Local
The Comfort Server Manager link is shown
Click on Comfort Server Manager.
NOTE THAT COMFORT SERVER MANAGER CAN ONLY WORK ON THE SAME NETWORK AS THE UCM/ETH03, NOT FROM INTERNET
The window should show all UCM/ETH03 that are connected physically to the network. It is in blue colour if it is on the same subnet, otherwise it will be shown in red. The current firmware version for the UCM/ETH03 is shown (1.07 in the above example). The Status of the UCM/ETH03 will normally be shown as "idle"; if there is a connection, the Status field will show "busy".
The IP address of the UCM/ETH03 is found by the discovery process. The default IP address setting has DHCP so the IP address will be automatically assigned by a Router with DHCP enabled. It is recommended to assign a fixed IP address for UCM/ETH03, making sure that it does not conflict with any assigned IP address on the network, as you will need to enter the IP address of the UCM/ETH03 in Comfigurator and for the purpose of allowing Port Forwarding for remote access. Uncheck the DHCP checkbox
- New IP: Enter the new IP Address of the UCM/ETH03
- Gateway: Enter the Gateway IP Address (normally the Router IP Address)
- Subnet: Enter the subnet mask for the network eg 255.255.255.0
- DNS: Enter the DNS server IP Address. This is usually the same as the gateway (Router address) but in some networks there may be a separate DNS Server.
- Port 1: the 1st network port through which the data is sent and received from the UCM. By default the port is set to 1001.
- Timeout 1: the time in minutes for which the TCP connection for Port 1 will remain open if there is no data to the port. A value of 0 means the connection will never time-out. It is recommended that 2 minute connection time-out is used when there may be more than 1 application trying to use the connection at the same time
- Port 2: the 2nd network port through which the data is sent and received from the UCM. By default the port is set to 1002.
- Timeout 2: the time in minutes for which the TCP connection for Port 2 will remain open if there is no data to the port. A value of 0 means the connection will never time-out. It is recommended that 2 minute connection time-out is used when there may be more than 1 application trying to use the connection at the same time
- Host Name: this is the name that can be used instead of the numeric IP Address, ie you can use this name in the UCM IP Address field instead of an IP address. This works for Local IP addresses only and not for Internet IP
Click the 'Submit' button to effect the new changes.
Press the 'Refresh' button once to rediscover the UCM/ETH03s in the network
Clear List button clears all the display on the Comfort Server Manager screen.
Reboot button reinitialises ETH03 submodule without changing any parameters.
Web (demo) and Upload Web buttons are for future use.
